Residency Program

Ambulatory Obstetrics and Gynecology

Continuity Clinic

The general obstetrics and gynecology clinics at The Mount Sinai Hospital are unified and fully-integrated continuity clinics. Based on a large "group practice" model, the ambulatory clinics take place in a modern, spacious facility within the Hospital. All residents, beginning in their first year, are assigned a weekly panel of patients; assignments are made based on a resident's level of experience. Patients registered in the clinic for gynecologic care continue to see the same resident for prenatal and postpartum care if they become pregnant, and patients registered for obstetrical care continue to see the same resident for postpartum and gynecologic care.

Each resident’s clinic meets weekly throughout the year, including when the resident is on rotation away from The Mount Sinai Hospital. One attending and one or two chief residents are present at each clinic session to teach and supervise all aspects of patient care. Backup coverage for ward duties is provided to ensure that clinic takes precedence over all other assignments. Residents are encouraged to follow their patients when they are admitted to the Hospital and to coordinate their inpatient care.

Specialty Clinics

A number of special and subspecialty clinics are held in addition to the continuity clinics. These include colposcopy, oncology, reproductive endocrinology, high-risk obstetrics, gestational diabetes, family planning, breast, and urogynecology clinics.

In addition, separate gynecology, gynecological surgery and high risk obstetrics clinics are held at Elmhurst Hospital Center.
